Wolfsdrüssel: Hitler and the Übersee Connection

History is stranger than fiction
In the world of hide and seek, governmental coverups, and the media and history telling anything but the truth, comes a refreshing touch of an alternate history, “WOLFSDRÜSSEL: Hitler and the Übersee Connection.”Did Adolf Hitler die in the bunker on April 30, 1945? I never believed it as there wasn’t sufficient proof to reach such a conclusion. Soviet and Allied leaders had their doubts. Much has been written about his escape from Germany in various books of alternate history but when one reads about eyewitnesses and in this case the author’s eight-year-old mother, one gives it importance. And she wasn’t alone but accompanied by her grandmother and others working in the field. Sudden landing of three Fieseler Storch on the potato fields and all the commotions of military vehicles arriving to fetch none other than the man they called the Fuehrer disembarking from one of the planes.A man contemplating his suicide, what was he doing out of the Berlin bunker so far away?And what’s strange about all this is that most people even in Germany didn’t know that there was a secret chancellery inside Wolfdrüssel (nicknamed), the castle in Steinach visited by Hitler and Martin Bormann. On his way out of Germany, Hitler may have stopped there to obtain something important as on April 23, 1945, the main building was set on fire by the SS troops to destroy the nazi party files stored there and the building burned down. Presence of the Fuehrer in a place far from Berlin in the last week of April 1945 and burning down of the castle, etc., all of this strengthened my belief that Adolf Hitler did not die in the bunker but fled Germany in late April 1945.The book is beautifully illustrated with interesting pictures and many stories that show the depth of research conducted by the author. One thing I loved very much about the book is the author’s dedication to his mother, a strong and loving soul who survived harsh realities and took care of her family. His mother would be very proud of this book.

Memories of the war set around a very secret former Nazi location
An interesting tale of what was told to the author by his mother when she lived in the grounds of a very secret Nazi location.Backed up by eye witness statements this book mentions a hitherto unpublicised location visited by Martin Bormann and Adolf Hitler

A must have for any WWII enthusiast!
After reading the book, I have to say I was pleased to learn that my personal beliefs on whether or not Adolf Hitler actually died in the bunker were still confirmed and even more this time, completely reassured meaning that he did in fact not die in the bunker. I don’t consider myself a fanatic by any means, but I am a truth seeker and love to hear stories of “cover ups” and why they were done exactly. It’s kind of like a murder mystery. I’ve always wondered what drives humanity to war and actually experienced it, although it was short lived, when serving in Operation Desert Shield/Storm once upon a time. Some people say it wasn’t really a war, but that is still open for debate. WWII was always my favorite to read about, although the Vietnam War ranks up there, because of the vast amount of information you get from it…it’s seemingly endless and oh so interesting to say the least, especially when it comes to the politics of the particular war. Out of all the books I’ve read about WWII, I don’t ever recall castle Steinach ever being mentioned, but I do now. Located in a beautiful part of Germany a few miles away from Straubing (perfect for a small plane to take-off and land) the castle without a doubt served a larger purpose than most of the castles the Third Reich occupied, yet it’s hardly mentioned anywhere in any books as far as I know. I find this fascinating. To the many folks out there that are in the same ball park as I was before reading the book, just knowing this would make me as excited as a kid in a candy store for the first time! The author obviously did his homework and research and with help from friends and family in Germany was able to put together this fine collectible piece of work chock full of pictures I’ve never seen before. Wolfsdrussel Hitler and the Ubersee Connection is a unique story finally told and it’s up to the reader’s imagination not only to conclude whether or not Adolph Hitler did in fact escape, but rather what was actually the core purpose of castle Steinach. Pleasure retreat? I think not. Happy reading.

Intriguing behind the scenes look at Nazi PHQ
A quick, fact packed read about a little known place that played an important role for the Nazi regime. Told from personal experience by the author and the people who lived through the height and the fall of this historic castle. Maybe HQ in my title is not completely accurate, but I compare the Wolfdrussel to the DNC or RNC headquarters in the US. In that role, the castle at Steinach held lots of secrets. All the fear and paranoia you would expect are here in this book. A fantastic source for buffs, historians and casual readers alike. I dropped one star for some editing oversights, easily fixed in a second edition.
